TOKYO - A 61-year-old Japanese woman gave birth to her own grandchild, using an egg donated by her daughter, a clinic said Thursday... The clinic said it performed the procedure because the woman's daughter has no uterus, but didn't give details on why she had that condition. The surrogate mother used a fertilized egg donated by her daughter.

What the hell's gotten into grandmas? First they're holding perps at gunpoint, now they're cranking out their own grandkids? What ever happened to watching "Murder She Wrote," smelling like mothballs and calling you by your cousin's name? Anyway, if for the sake of argument the baby is a boy, here's a look at this particular family tree:

• The kid is both the son and grandson to Granny, here.
• The daughter is the boys mother and half sister.
• If the mother has a daughter (a neat trick without a uterus, but bear with me), the girl would be the boy's sister and his aunt (I think).
• The father is the mom's husband and the grandmother's babydaddy.
• Grandpa is the boys grandfather and step-father.
• There's a 90% chance that Travis Henry is involved somehow.

All of which sounds weird to you and me, and the people of Japan. But this family would be right at home in Maine.
